  • It’s the (hilariously chaotic) journey, not the destination

    I started listening to this pod a few months ago, and was at first unsure of the format. I was so invested in “the list” that I was fast forwarding the intros and discussions, and was often left disappointed when my favorites were snubbed. But the more I listened, the more I started to enjoy every hilarious retelling of childhood memory or prolonged back and forth about the virtues of Start Trek V. By the time I was screaming in my car about the ridiculously perfectly chaotic 80s fantasy draft, ... more

    Maybe someday AI will let us excise a GM talking, like Jordan.

  • Long Form Magic

    Maybe the idea of 3-5+ hour long episodes scares you. Don’t be deterred. Scroll through the episode titles and pick a draft that appeals to you. It’s a bunch of smart film enthusiasts/experts talking eloquently and passionately about movies. It never gets old. Screen Drafts fixes all your long drive, boring housework problems. You’ll start to wonder why the hosts of your other favorite podcasts wimp out at 45 minutes or whatever.
